Love's Empathy

The narrow bridge I crossed, was to your heart Fighting like a sparrow small through a storm To rescue you before desires depart Drifting through your endless days as they form A broken heart brings a cold winter's wind Chilling a fragile soul down to its core Release darkest demons, you must exscind Or be chained in dungeon black, a captor Weaken this iron darkness where light is kept Locked away tightly and quietly fed To visit briefly as memories wept Opening the bridge where your heart has bled So I may find you, before love's light fades And allow your heart to trust, never afraid For the contest Heart Felt Poem Sponsored by Royal Trevino written by Frederic Parker
